INDIANAPOLIS. 



The Market 



We have just passed through one of 

 i ■ most successful Christmases that we 

 1 ve had in years. The weather oondi- 

 t ns were ideal up to Christmas eve, 

 V. len there was a fall of about seven 

 i hes of snow, followed by a cold wave, 

 \, iiich made delivering a hardship and, 

 IK. doubt, cut in on the Christmas morn- 

 i ig's sales. However, we have no right 

 to complain, as this was by far the best 

 ( iiristmas that we have had in years. 

 J'receding and following Christmas there 

 w ere a number of debutante parties, call- 

 iiig for numerous decorations and no end 

 of flowers as gifts. 



As a rule, stock was plentiful and 

 brought good prices; roses retailing at 

 from $3 to $6 per dozen; carnations, 

 $1.50 to $2, and American Beauties, $18 

 to $24. Most of the violets were the 

 eastern stock and brought $4 per hundred. 

 Poinsettias, valley, orchids, hyacinths and 

 Paper Whites were in good supply and 

 sold well. In pot plants, azaleas had the 

 call, with cyclamen next. A great many 

 good Lorraine were to be had, but they 

 are becoming less popular each year. 

 Primulas were in abundance and sold 

 well. A number of florists experienced 

 considerable trouble in their stock not 

 arriving on account of the railroads being 

 tied up by the heavy fall of snow. 



Vftdoui Note*. 



A. F. J. Baur spent Christmas at 

 Richmond with relatives. 



John Eieman and A. Wiegand & Sons 

 have added new wagons to their equip- 

 ments. 



Hans Kipke, of A. Wiegand & Sons, 

 went to Chicago to attend a dance Christ- 

 mas night. His train got tied up in the 

 snow storm and he did not get there until 

 the next day, spending twenty-four hours 

 on the way. H. L. W. 



Lima, O. — The greenhouses of E. N. 

 Zetlitz were damaged by fire on the 

 night of December 20. The immediate 

 loss by fire, water and frost was esti- 

 mated at $2,000, but the misfortune was 

 rendered more serious by the fact that 

 it occurred at the height of the holiday 

 demand. The fire started in the boiler 

 room and was confined to the rear part 

 of the buildings.
